LONDON: A Twitter account claiming to belong to the son of Al-Qaeda鈥檚 deceased founder, Osama bin Laden, has praised the memory of the terrorist organization鈥檚 leader, sparking outrage among Arab social media commentators.

Omar, son of Osama bin Laden, the Saudi-born Al-Qaeda leader, on Tuesday shared a tweet in which he commemorated the anniversary of his father鈥檚 death.

He said: 鈥淗istory is only written with the blood of such people 鈥� to tell the stories of those martyrs who made history, built nations, and brought about glory. Their blood is the lifeline of our faith until the Day of Judgement. May you rest in peace.鈥�

The social media platform claims, under its Twitter Rules, that the 鈥減romotion of terrorism and violent extremism鈥� is prohibited.

Twitter鈥檚 policy states that 鈥渁ny accounts maintained by individual perpetrators of terrorist, violent extremist, or mass violent attacks鈥� will be removed even if the person has not been 鈥渃onfirmed as members of terrorist organizations or other violent and hateful entities, nor that they have any official affiliation with any group, organization, or ideology, for us to enforce on content under this aspect of our policies.鈥�

However, the tweet and its owner were still on the platform at the time of writing this report.

Many Arabs, including Saudis, took to social media to express outrage, slamming the tweet, and condemning the crimes of Al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden in Afghanistan, the Arab world, and around the globe.

In response to Omar鈥檚 tweet, Noor Alotaibi from 抖阴短视频 said: 鈥淵our father was lost, and he led many astray. He has the blood of innocent people on his hands.

鈥淗e distorted the Prophet鈥檚 hadiths and misinterpreted Qur鈥檃nic verses to justify the killing of our children, leaders, and soldiers 鈥� this is a great sin.鈥�

Abdullah Al-Hazza, from Kuwait, said: 鈥淭he massacres and follies committed by your father, which he described as 鈥榡ihad,鈥� gave the West a reason to oppress Muslims around the world. Look at how he destroyed Afghanistan.

鈥淭he bloodshed he started never stopped, and these are sins that he and the likes of him will always carry. May you and your father get what you deserve.鈥�

Another Twitter user, Yahya, from Riyadh, said: 鈥淭he faith I follow has nothing to do with what you and your cursed criminal father believe in.鈥�

Others cited the Sept. 11 attacks on the US, which were carried out by Al-Qaeda militants in 2001, as well as the terrorist group鈥檚 crimes in the Middle East and Africa.

Responding to Omar bin Laden鈥檚 original tweet, Sonia said: 鈥淵our father killed 2,977 innocent people in New York in one day.

鈥淵our father killed 60 people and maimed 115 others in one hour in the Amman bombings (of 2005).

鈥淵our father killed hundreds in Iraq, Yemen, Africa, and other places. Until today, he is responsible for the killing taking place because he ignited all (the terrorism) we see today.

鈥淵our father is a terrorist, not a martyr.鈥�

Mohammed Al-Rouqi said: 鈥淲hat glory did (your father) create? He targeted Muslims in 抖阴短视频 and collaborated with the enemies of Muslims. Those who made your father made others, and your father and his likes have brought calamities on Muslim countries and gave Americans the right to invade Afghanistan.鈥�

He added that Osama bin Laden had 鈥渁ttempted, by collaborating with adversaries, to frame 抖阴短视频 for the bombing of the Twin Towers.鈥�

On May 2, 2011, Osama bin Laden was shot dead when a US Navy SEALs special operation unit raided his hideout in northern Pakistan. Following the success of the operation, then-US President Barack Obama said: 鈥淏in Laden was not a Muslim leader; he was a mass murderer of Muslims.鈥�
